Teaching Smart People How to Learn (Harvard Business Review Classics)

Chris Argyris

About this book

"Why are your smartest and most successful employees often the worst learners? It's because they haven't had the opportunities for introspection that failure affords. Instead of critically examining their own behavior, they cast blame outward - on anyone or anything they can." "In Teaching Smart People How to Learn, Chris Argyris sheds light on the forces that prevent highly skilled people from learning from mistakes, and offers up suggestions for helping you talent reach their full potential."--BOOK JACKET.
